View Full Version : Need "path to Unix date" for cgi script

Hopefully this is a simple question with an easy answer . . .

I am setting up a links directory cgi script, all looks well so far (Wow, up and running in one day? I must be getting good at this CGI stuff! Either that or this script was actually written properly to begin with! Unlike that @#$^@& . . . but that's a whole nother vent, and I digress).

All I need now is "unix system date command" -- it wants it in the form of a path, and the example was actually just like the one for "unix system sendmail command" which I just filled in with /usr/lib/sendmail and that seems to be fine.

I checked the FQ user manual but didn't see it there . . . I hope this is something that's available to us, as the script's output is a bit weird without it.

Thanks in advance,

Bekariso

LeafWind,
/usr/bin/date

which you can find by shelling (telnet/SSH) into your space and typing
which date

Cheers.
